OSHER 935 - Walking Meditation

Walking is good for the body and mediation is good for the mind. Putting the two of them together makes sense. Open yourself to the possibilities with this introductory exploration of walking and standing meditation forms. We'll learn about four types of walking meditation and the history, practical aspects, breathing methods, and mantras associated with each. Each class includes time to practice what you learn. During the last class we will walk the labyrinth on the University of Utah campus. Please wear layered clothing appropriate to the season and comfortable shoes suitable for walking and standing.
